A megabit is 1,000 kilobits or 1,000,000 bits. Standard unit for internet connection speeds.
View the megabit data unit pageHow to Convert Kilobytes to Megabits
To convert kilobytes to megabits, multiply by 8 then adjust for scale. This converts byte-based storage measurements to bit-based units.
KB is a byte-based unit used for measuring file sizes and storage capacity.
Mb is a bit-based unit—multiply bytes by 8 to get bits.
1 KB = 0.008 Mb (using SI decimal standard) — or equivalently, 1 Mb = 125KB.
KB to Mb conversion rate: 1 kilobyte equals 0.008megabits — the standard kilobyte to megabit data storage conversion used by this calculator.

KB to Mb Conversion Formula
Here's the exact KB to Mb formula in copy-paste-ready form — multiply by 0.008 to go from kilobytes to megabits, or by 125 to reverse it — followed by a quick-reference chart of the same conversion.
// Convert KB to Mb
Mb = KB × 0.008
// Reverse: Convert Mb to KB
KB = Mb × 125
